Rethinking the Past in a Changing World, by Eric Foner I won't post the whole Book Review, it is too OT, but if you are interested in American History, and where it is being taken, try this article. Here is the Lead In: The Left's Lion Eric Foner's history. Eric Foner of Columbia University is one of our nation's most acclaimed historians. A past president of both the American Historical Association and the Organization of American Historians, he is best known as the author of pioneering revisionist studies of Reconstruction and of Republican ideology before the Civil War, as well as other books on ideology and politics in the Civil War era.
